Included in the toolkit we have 70 howling bassline patches as well as 6 video tutorials on patch creation, effects tweaking (including some great tips on using envelopes to add dynamic evolution and harmonics to your sounds) through to how to use the morph grid and deep modulation of parameters within FM8. Not only this, but there's also another 3 bonus video tutorials specifically on creating that growling Skrillex style bassline!

And best of all there’s no waiting by the mailbox for delivery. Everything is ready for instant download right to your hard drive!

i just wanted to let you know your videos are amazing. I used frequency modulation synthesis before I found your site but never got this in depth with the software.

All have morph pads painstakingly programmed in so that with the move of a mouse or your midi controller you can make the each sound evolve LIVE to add dynamic range to your track.

Using the morph pad you can easily choose from a hundreds of different positions to give hundreds of different sounds WITHIN EACH PATCH! Tweak your pad to find the exact tone that sits in your mix.

Imagine what you can do by adding your own effects to these already dark and heavy basslines. And if you don’t know how to add effects, and you’d like to learn, then look no further! This pack has all basses covered!

Evolving bass textures & precision bass tones

Dubstep is a comparatively minimal and bass driven genre, so it is easy to make the mistake of allowing tracks to become repetitious, monotonous and stagnant. How can you avoid this? Add in some evolution to the sound of your bassline in real time using FM8’s Morph pad.

Each of the 70 FM8 dubstep presets within this pack have the morph pad painstakingly programmed to give four different (sometimes radically different) extremes of the sound

Similar to Massive’s macro controllers, this feature adds a great variety of tonality to each patch, ensuring that you can squeeze the most out of each and every sound

The pack also contains a dedicated tutorial on programming in the morph pad so that you can learn the technique and apply it to your own ideas when creating patches

70 FM8 Dubstep Growl Presets

This toolkit is split into two key areas - first up in this toolbox of dubstep mayhem we have 70 howling bassline patches for FM8 each loaded up with different settings across the morph pad (giving an infinate array of entirely distinct sounds within each patch).

For those of you who want to dive right into some production action and just want to get rocking as soon as possible, I feel you!

Grab this package, head straight for the patches and knock yourself out!

You are in good company. Among Dr hobo’s previous customers are some very, very very famous musicians whose tunes you almost certainly already own!

I just wanted to thank you for the great videos you put together. I have gone from tweaking knobs for no reason to fully understanding how I can attack the sound I want to achieve. I almost feel like a musical genius because of you!

Dubstep Growl Video Tutorials

If you don’t want to learn you’re wasting your time! This is all about technique, technique, technique... 2 hours of it!

You'll push the envelope even further and come up with some truly original sounds of your own, as well as achieving the dark growl bassline that has set dubstep ablaze. Inside you will find:

How to use FM8 to create a wobble bass from scratch

How to create growling, snarling bass patches

How to use FM8’s powerful internal effects to emphasise the best qualities of a patch’s harmonic range and get your patch production-ready

Using envelopes to make the dynamics of your sound evolve over time, so that your basslines never become stagnant, repetitive and boring

Modulating parameters within FM8 to get your sound to evolve in a way that is entirely under your (midi) control, LIVE

Using FM8’s powerful grid to achieve hundreds of vastly different sounds out of the same patch

That Skrillex Bass Sound

Skrillex is one of the most exciting and innovative producers of his generation, having taken bassline synthesis to a new level of filth and darkness.

Included are 3 video tutorials specifically on creating that growling Skrillex style bassline using external effects, frequency splitting, widening the stereo field, and adding a touch of granular synthesis to the mix.

Video 1 focuses on the tools required for sound design and dance music production. We'll load up one of the included presets and show you how to do it:
a) Modulating internal parametersb) Copying instances of FM8 to create variations on effectsc) adding the vocal elementsd) widening the harmonic field using separate channelse) adding sophisticated evolutionary automation simply and quickly.
At each stage the tutorial shows you various short cuts and tips and tricks. Remember, this is all about learning technique!

Video 3 takes you through some post production techniques including resampling, frequency splitting and adding multiple layers that complement basslines. We also demonstrate the power of granular synthesis with an in-depth look at CamelPhat’s excellent granular engine in Alchemy to get that Amon Tobinesque sound you may have identified in the advert above! We even look into how to further manipulate effects, LFOs and EQs inyour resampled bass via NI's sampler Kontakt.

It's Like Having Your Own Private Dubstep Tutor!

Listen again to the quality of the growling bass in the advert above.

You simply don’t get that quality without external effects processing, frequency splitting, EQing, resampling, stereo widening and so on, and so on, and so on.

These techniques are among the most difficult in sound production and this is the reason why such secrets are so guarded by the best producers, and why so few can achieve anything close to these cutting edge sounds.

It would be unfair to advertise FM8 patches with all the external processing and effects, and not show how the sounds in the advert were actually made… The solution? Show the customers exactly how those growls and howls are achieved!

Videos included are 6 tutorials on patch creation, effects tweaking, using envelopes to add dynamic evolution and harmonics to your sounds, using the morph grid and modulating parameters within FM8.

Not only this, but also 3 tutorials specifically on creating that growling Skrillex style bassline using external effects, frequency splitting, widening the stereo field, and adding a touch of granular synthesis to the mix. Totaling over 2 hours of tutorial material!

Those who want to learn professional sound-design techniques that are guaranteed to make your productions stand out, head straight for the tutorials and use the patches creatively to get your own stinking dutty dubstep bass.

I’d love to hear your results!!!

Your FM8 video tutorials have made my experience with it all the more rewarding!
